Solution(By Examveda Team)
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Total}}\,{\text{Volume}}\,{\text{of}}\,{\text{water}}\,{\text{displaced}} \cr & = \left( {4 \times 50} \right){m^3} = 200\,{m^3} \cr & \therefore {\text{Rise}}\,{\text{in}}\,{\text{water}}\,{\text{level}} \cr & = \left( {\frac{{200}}{{40 \times 20}}} \right)m \cr & = 0.25\,m \cr & = 25\,cm \cr} $$Related Questions on Volume and Surface Area
